Which is Best loudspeaker in the $1000-1200 range?


I am planning to do an upgrade, and I would like to know which loudspeakers REALLY stand out in this price range. Please don't reply telling which loudspeaker you have. I want to know which are the true winners....I mean, those loudspeakers that cost a $1000 but sound like they cost $2500! Which are the "best buy" options that are a total consensus among audiophiles?

I know plenty of $1000 speakers that sound better than B&Ws that cost $2500. Is this what you are looking for? :):)
I have Quad 12L's and like them a lot. Might look at the 21 or 22 used. There may be an issue with the space you have to work with off your back wall though. I have been leaning towards getting some Totems to replace the Quads but must first deal with getting a new CDP which will be the Rega Apollo.

Good luck
Beheme, although your attempt was to tear on B&W, it was actually a compliment, as you are using them as an industry reference.
I don't own these so I hope this qualifies.___There is a pair of used Acoustat 2+2, w/Medalion's for 850 right now.That would be my choice.
